its just completely faceroll

storm forum
#

you only look at stat weights for vanity reasons

runic hinge
#

yeah and less than 1% of people do that

balmy condor
#

whatever all +12's done is

runic hinge
#

your veiw point of the game is not real

#

LOL

balmy condor
#

I guess 2850

dawn heath
#

just because few people engage with the system doesnt make it hard

sudden shale
#

So crit = mastery is just a facade? lol

runic hinge
#

just cause you achieved something doesnt make it easy

balmy condor
#

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.

  • Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
  • Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
  • Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results

Dont ever,and for any reason,downplay urself for what uve achieved.2.8/multiglad/R1 rated arenas cannot be compared to anything pve,even CE.Its just waaaaay harder

So in my opinion

i suck

storm forum
#

pvp is hard. i can only do it when im getting soft boosted (a friend is doing all the shot calling and telling me exactly what to do)

dawn heath
#

growth mindset

#

i suck at rogue too

polar rampart
#

so they can change numbers and pretend its new content, instead of making more actual things for us to do

balmy condor
#

growth mindset of constantly shitting on yourself because you don't reach your own ridiculously high standards

#

Thats why even if i have decent heroic parses, my mythic parses are terrible

i thought i was getting poached

runic hinge
#

Bro i was just a new baby rogue and was like who is the best assa on my server what do they know

storm forum
#

cause the only time people were getting in game mail on our server in shadowlands was to poach people

rotund oak

which was also wild

#

now tony is the new best assa rogue in a non-CE guild on the server

dawn heath
#

i havent been into the raid for a few weeks

#

im falling behind on the buff

runic hinge
storm forum
#

Aljan if you get an alt to max level and do LFR once you have like 2 weeks worth of turn ins

rotund oak
#

dunno what buff it is tbh

#

im still gonna send the pain

dawn heath
#

the buff is massive

#

ur not gonna parse without the buff

rotund oak
#

watch me

dawn heath

its like

rotund oak

balmy condor
rotund oak
#

we are just build different

dawn heath
#

i just don't see any reason to step in the raid right now

#

dont need any gear anymore

#

just for offspec

rotund oak
#

just for the achievs nothing more

#

maybe kill 4 boss Mythic to say to my self ive done something

#

next raid with the fat goblin looks amazing though

#

mount vibes

dawn heath
#

yeah i mean i could use the uhm very rare cloak but

#

it would be adps loss

#

just a defensive gain

rotund oak
#

yup,ive got it on HC

#

and the neck

#

both suck

#

#

how are u not like

#

im working man Sadge

dawn heath
#

u must work alot

rotund oak
#

i work like 50h+ everyweek

dawn heath
#

i'm pretty much gearcapped

rotund oak
#

im 635,just by spaming 10-11s

#

and i havent crafted 3-4 stuff

#

and i dont have trinkets

#

have i played half the time ild be in that range for sure

#

anyway,gonna bounce,need to bring some wood for the fireplace and light it up

dawn heath
#

o7

blazing pumice
#

I'm sure they'll introduce a busted trinket next tier that forces people to suffer through raiding

dawn heath
#

all those "powerful" items are usually sub 1% compared to other bis alternatives, and they also said that they will introduce this dinar system so u will get these items eventually.

runic hinge
#

branch was a thing

dawn heath
#

you do feel behind on gear early on in a season compared to mythic raiders but by like week 8 in a season you are probably less than 1 ilvl behind someone who has cleared the mythic raid a few times

gloomy heart
#

i started late this season

#

im 637

dawn heath
#

ye

#

gear doesnt matter

gloomy heart
dawn heath
#

also people cope thinking that their one 626 trinket is the reason they are blue parsing like bro come on

#

gear is not the problem

gloomy heart
#

yeah

dawn heath
#

skill is always the most important metric by a fuck ton, then its gonna be the raid you play in, kill times etc, then its gonna be RNG and gear that's usually a smaller portion of the result

static glacier
#

is blue parsing bad, it's by definition above average

dawn heath
#

i'm not convinced its better than average alot of gray parses are just dead players imo exclueded from the pool. But that's not really what i'm discussing, i'm saying there is a bunch of people that feel like "they need to raid" to do well or they need X, Y,Z item blowing the relevance of these items out of proportion massively. there is nothing u can't do because u dont have this item

static glacier
#

I mean

blazing pumice
#

isn't the caster trinket busted this tier

static glacier
#

you can't just assume all gray are dead especially on the later bosses

runic hinge
#

for every pink someone has to be grey

static glacier
#

but I've really been questioning the whole idea of parse culture, feels like the goalposts have constantly been moving

blazing pumice
#

1% dps differences are an issue when keys are tight and you're only timing shit by seconds

#

you have to work harder for it

rotund oak
jaunty sky
#

You guys gotta remember

#

You're the ones moving the goal posts

static glacier
#

it's people around you

#

too

winged sun
static glacier
#

some people I know will look down on average parses that aren't orange

jaunty sky
#

Sure

#

But their view on the whole game is different

static glacier
#

game 1 vs game 2

jaunty sky
#

Yeah exactly

dawn heath
jaunty sky
#

A lot of people are very happy to clear normal and most people talking in class discords are falling asleep in heroic cause it's so boring

dawn heath
#

like anything below a 95+ would be horrendous for my own standards on farm bosses and anything below 90 on a mythic progression kil would make me dissapointed

rotund oak
dawn heath
#

but i also take it way more serious than other people, i study logs cooldown timings vod review i do go the extra mile when i play raiding seriously

#

so i would expect to do better than people who just show up to raid and hit random buttons

static glacier
#

I see what you're getting at but a lot of it is really out of your control

#

90 on prog kills is ridiculously difficult if you kill stuff quickly

rotund oak
#

its good to train and progress,its wrong to expect the same kind of competition from others

static glacier
#

there will be hardly any parses, you're talking top 5-10 ranks

rotund oak
#

or project it to them

static glacier
#

I think to get better as a player I need to play less for damage

jaunty sky
#

Yeah in prog a kill's a kill

rotund oak
#

10/10 the go

#

also whats wrong with the rain today

#

holysht

static glacier
#

it's wierd to say but me doing consistently orange tier but greeding / causing even a single wipe makes me bad compared to consistent dmg around purple standard but flawless / no greed

#

it's what happend on broodtwister

#

rank 7 on kill, i'd say first half of prog for me was dogshit

jaunty sky
#

I mean

#

A dead dps does 0 dps

static glacier
#

true but that paladin 24/7 at 15y bc they're scared of being hit by swirlies on ovinax after they flamed others

#

is doomed to green log

#

both sides of it are too extreme

#

but y'know what I mean

jaunty sky
static glacier
#

trrueeeeee

#

jokes aside I think the sweet spot is doing as much damage as possible without taking real risks / griefing mechanic

#

I think if I started from a baseline of being overly cautious I might be better as a prog player

jaunty sky
#

Yeah i always go survival first

#

Even if i do horrible dmg

#

I'm at least alive to learn stuff

static glacier
#

Im a terrorist early in prog but towards second half of a boss I will be v clean + good damage

#

I think if I was just cleaner early and sorted dmg in later pulls I would deffo be better

#

I learn fights by globals to boss position / mechanic going off

#

e.g I can tell you my 2nd kingsbane on princess lines up with her doing the dash through boss lines

pulsar wagon
#

@balmy condor i have a question. Was watching your A-Z assassination rogue video.

Slice and dice. Do we ever press it really? I ask cause I don't see where we press it in rotation.

balmy condor
#

it auto procs on envenom

#

so any combo points spent just casting envenom is wasted

static glacier
#

only exception is for w/e reason if you're forced to be at range for a ridiculous amount of time (25-30s) and you're using poison knife to avoid capping energy. this situation doesn't come up atm in the game.

balmy condor
#

cause you could've envenomed instead

pulsar wagon
#

Oooooooh okay I see. Thanks so much!

jaunty sky
#

But even then, missing a global is better than missing the rest of the fight

static glacier
#

yeah for surre

#

I sometimes do 0 action pulls for the first 5-10 pulls of a boss

#

I won't even hit it

dawn heath
#

i had fewer deaths than our blood dk tanks

#

u can still parse high and not die

#

but yeah high parsing usually can lead to risky/greedy play

#

but to me

#

a goood player knows the risk/reward ratio and can handle it well

#

damage makes fights easier as well, playing safe is not good play

#

rotund oak

bro doesnt press them buttons

dawn heath
#

also enhance if they dont get to prestack tempest and are spoon fed a by with aug buffs they're not that OP

#

prestacking tempest is day and night difference

rotund oak
#

still should be able to 1.1m+

dawn heath
#

obviously yea

#

I was salty the rest of the run

gloomy heart

give me that enhance

#

not this guy

#

631 doing 900k in a 11 ara

I hope enhance gets nerfed into the fucking ground after this season tbh

Rarely do I get salty but i'm tired of the fotms

I know, i'll see them again on another class if not enhance

#

Then the shaman takes mine

dawn heath
#

i never even go for them

viscid ember
#

which trink is better at hero track for raid? sac/bolarus or empower crystal? spyglass and emp sims within 2-3k for me but sac sims a lot worse at 626

rotund oak
#

for uptime in 1st singularity cast

#

got mechagnome pseudocheatdeath+feint and clos for another isngularity cast

rotund oak
#

just to push some dmg

dawn heath
#

i just do this

rotund oak
#

coz ppl end up with 500k dps on last boss

#

or die to stupid waves and swirlies

gloomy heart
#

Yeah i should do that

#

Rarely do keys soi dont know the tech

rotund oak
#

could never play like that

#

but i do step ofc

dawn heath
#

i mean it has happend a few times but its rare

rotund oak
#

u r supposed to minmax stuff arent u

#

group frames etc kinda irrelevant as well

dawn heath
#

na

#

i do some shotcalling in keys

rotund oak
#

yeees and what do group frames have to do with anything

gloomy heart
#

Doing keys with these ppl are making me hate keys

dawn heath
#

need to see people cds

rotund oak
#

u can track them cds fam,move the track bar somewhere

#

move everything

#

or whatever that was called

#

u will see more stuff

#

its like pvp,when u wanna have a good view of stuff and make better calls

#

u cant be missing stuff around

dawn heath
#

i dont think its a problem. i've tried reducing the size of things but my brain just wont recognize the things when i make it smaller

rotund oak
#

im just saying fam

#

we had ppl here pushing rank 1 m+ titles and they didnt see what was happenign infront of them

#

its a mystery but if it works it works

this isnt much to yall prob but this is huge for me

#

first 99 on heroic

runic hinge
gloomy heart
#

was on 2nd boss

#

wasnt caustic either

plush delta
#

is supercharger bugged? it gives me the first 2 combo points every time, and landing on those doesnt seem to reward the right values or trigger darkest night etc

#

or am i doing smthn wrong

blazing pumice
#

that's not how supercharger works

gloomy heart
blazing pumice
#

it has nothing to do with ER, it just adds two combo points in damage to your finishers

gloomy heart
#

If you mean like at the start of a pull

#

you prob shivd ur last kill and didnt use

plush delta
#

ok thats my mistake i thought it was the same as ER

#

thanks

gloomy heart
#

😄

keen spruce
#

U were doin big damn in mythic

topaz eagle
#

Hi guys i have a question does applying multiple caustic spatter increases dmg (each pool deals dmg)? Or should i just apply it to one mob?

keen spruce
topaz eagle
#

it dissapears from the previous one?

keen spruce
#

Yes

topaz eagle
#

oh thanks 😉 now its clear to me

keen spruce
topaz eagle
#

its super hard for me to deal with raid aoe situations

keen spruce
#

Just hit boss

#

Let spatter do some damage

topaz eagle
#

yeah but you know for instance on ansureks platforms i have no idea what to focus

keen spruce
#

Just pick one of the guys on each platform

#

Do t worry about hitting the little sides

#

Dudes

#

You can just switch to fan to hold combo points

#

If there’s a lotta mobs

#

But normally it’s just more single target

#

With spatter doing some damage

topaz eagle
#

and do you apply rupture/garrote to multiple targets or just a main one? in raid aoe

keen spruce
#

depends

#

normally just main target but if something will live a long time

#

u can throw a rupture

topaz eagle
#

k - thanks 😉 will give it a try ;*

#

Gotta come out and ask. ST while in aoe talents feels really "eh". Is it literally just a "pool more energy angle", and accept that keeping envenom active is hard? xD

novel star
#

pooling isnt really a thing so yea tbh

#

our m+ st is just simply bad

#

!pooling

prisma monolithBOT
#
  • Energy just is low on the spec there's nothing to do about it
  • Super Min-Max stuff includes avoiding the auto proc of tea (less than +0.2%, tea/shiv macro is optimal)
  • Refreshing Envenom in pandemic instead of spamming it (mostly relevant for m+ without TTK, can be up to 0.5%)
  • Otherwise nothing matters. Pooling before kingsbanes isn't important because of tea lining up and deathmark giving a huge surge of energy
grim bronze
#

oh.. What is that tea macro? 😄

#

what is higher prio refreshing envenom in pandemic or stacking scent while we already energy saturated?

dark thorn
#

wdym scent

subtle tundra
#

your premise makes no sense. if theres scent to get stacked it means youre in aoe and you dont care about envenom buff

marble wagon
#

so in aoe we always maintain 5 stacks of scent basically instead of spamming envenom at like 3 stacks?

Hey guys . Merry Xmas. So I opened my vault yesterday and my best item was Skardyn's Grace. I was so happy to finally see it but then I ran a Sim and Sim showed that my current trinkets which are Treacherous Transmitter and Ovinaxx's Mercurial Egg are better . So am I equip it or follow what Sim says ?

Corrupt the Blood/Rupture Bug
Corrupt the blood can jump to mobs that are out of combat when the rupture-afflicted target changes from harmful to non-harmful
This is repeatable with mind control, but is most common on the third boss of Grim Batol when skipping the two elites before the boss.

You can avoid it by being EXTREMELY careful to not target anything when your target shifts, but otherwise not much to be done. Just be careful and aware as it is a niche bug that should not happen frequently

I beat Shmeeps on a few bosses in amidrassil then he went back and high rolled all his Sophic uptime

jade abyss
#

what we play wrong when the giant boss in stonevault with the portals heals itself to 100% ?

#

i think when a add survive he got only a bigger shield?

winged sun
#

@spice spire

winged sun
#

never crossed my mind to ask this but

#

if ur at 50 stacks kingsbane, if i press mutilate will it do more dps?

#

or does kingsbane dmg not change at all at max cp

#

at max stacks*

#

same with refreshing garrote mid cds

royal lantern
#

What should change at that point

#

stacks are maxed, dmg doesnt go higher

#

(not from KB itself)

spice spire
#

So like

#

If you vanish at 8s to go but you’re 50 stacks already there’s no change to damage essentially

midnight mist
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
winged sun
#

so u have to vanish super early

gloomy heart
#

LOOOL

winged sun
#

for kingsbane

#

if we were to buff it

spice spire
gloomy heart
#

i got shmeepd

spice spire
#

Unless you’re talking like

#

M+

#

When you have subt

#

Then ye

winged sun
#

not raid

spice spire
#

Milk that master assassin

winged sun
#

raid is simple

#

ye

#

so instant MA

#

in m+

#

yea?

royal lantern
#

for max dmg

#

with vanish timer

winged sun
#

wait what like what does it do

#

it tells me when to vanish or what

royal lantern
#

aka if you use subterfuge with MA, it will tell you when to use vanish for max MA uptime on kingsbane

winged sun
#

interesting

royal lantern
#

yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

rotund oak
#

😂

winged sun
#

no fucking way

rotund oak
#

joking ofc

winged sun
#

this WA is insane

#

LOOOOOOOOOOL

#

like

#

it makes it so clear and easy

#

even tho sin is already easy but yea

#

doesnt make u think of when to vanish

#

it just tells u when

runic hinge
#

:3

royal lantern
#

easy enough for sinester strike brains to play it efficently

slate crown
winged sun
#

wait it kinda told me to shiv 1 seconds late

slate crown
#

you can move it backwards a sec in the options if you want

#

also doesn't matter does it

#

kb ticks are on the even second intervals

royal lantern
winged sun
#

idk

royal lantern
#

and cant be speed up with haste

winged sun
#

yea but do u not lose a tick with shiv

#

?

slate crown
#

either way you can offset it backwards if you want in the options

winged sun
#

yea i will

#

should be 8 seconds

#

yea?

#

instead of 7

#

the one i want

#

^

slate crown
#

well

winged sun
#

or why is it at 7?

#

so that u get the final tick when it ends?

#

since it wont do anything at 7-7.9?

slate crown
#

if you shiv at 8 seconds remaining PRECISELY like 8.00000

#

then you'll get that tick and the last tick

#

but if you hit it at 8.005

#

you'll miss the last tick

winged sun
#

oh shit

#

so 7 is perfect

#

?

slate crown
#

and if you hit it at 7.999 you'll miss the first tick in that window but still get the last tick

#

last tick more important

winged sun
#

ok i see why u have it on 7

slate crown
#

so anything between 6 and 8 is fine

#

doesn't matter

royal lantern
#

you "miss" 1 mid tick

#

but have 100% the last tick, which is the important one

winged sun
#

but generally, pressing it at 7 is better than 8.1 sec yea?

slate crown
#

yes

#

same reason with why vanish is offset by 0.25 seconds

winged sun
#

wait so pressing it at 6.0001 sec and 7.9 sec is the exact same thing??

royal lantern
#

yes

slate crown
#

as far as kingsbane ticks are concerned yes

winged sun
#

cool ok ok

#

yea perfect then 7 is good

slate crown
#

because it's better to have a 0.25 sec late vanish

#

than it is to have a 0.0001 early vanish

runic hinge
#

other things are ticking too

slate crown
#

and miss the last tick

winged sun
#

ehh i mean in keys u kinda want to vanish early reason being is that there are alot of low hp mobs on all packs

#

that being with deathmark i mean

slate crown
#

sure

winged sun
slate crown
#

I'm just saying "for the purposes of maximizing Kingsbane Tick damage"

#

there are other considerations, which yo ucan weigh

winged sun
#

like what

slate crown
#

if you vanish at 5.75 sec remaining

#

that's vanishing "late" but not really

winged sun
#

dont u also lose 0.25 sec on bleed ticks worth of 20% crit for deathmark?

slate crown
#

yes

winged sun
#

isnt that bad

#

or

slate crown
#

I don't know

winged sun
#

is it just better off nailing off the kingsbane tick

slate crown
#

it's a push/pull

#

one makes kb last tick bigger

#

one makes bleeds bigger peeposhrug

winged sun
#

kingsbane does more dam tho so Zerossthinking

slate crown
#

Either way

#

you can adjust them back / around

crimson zephyr
winged sun
#

super cool WA ngl

#

cant wait to play more with it

slate crown
#

you can put back to 5.999 sec if you want or whatever

winged sun
#

hmm i see

#

5.75 is perfect nah

#

better indicator

#

ye ur default settings are just how i like them Zerossthinking

crimson zephyr
#

also: why are the langauges mixed on the log o.O

runic hinge
#

M+ has so many factors unless you're really fucking your rotation it's hard to say

winged sun
#

i'll probably delete it later at some point Zerossthinking just because i dont like to bloat WAs

#

once i get the full idea of it

crimson zephyr
#

I think I waste 14% of my CP (which is one of the small mistkaes I notice) but 14% seems a bit high. 😮

gloomy heart
#

feeling old with back ache

gloomy heart
#

i think i slept wrong

spice spire
#

Key parses

#

Are time only

winged sun
#

quake

spice spire
#

It’s just comparing time in key versus other Assassination rogues

crimson zephyr
spice spire
#

It’s not your raw damage

#

Deaths

winged sun
#

i can refresh garrotes in deathmark yea? like lets say i can just garrote once at the start (m+), then garrote at the end?

spice spire
#

Low dps

winged sun
#

since IC is long

#

ok

#

and

slate crown
spice spire
#

All of these factors effect your key %

crimson zephyr
winged sun
#

if darkest night is up and rupture is down

#

100% always envenom yea?

royal lantern
#

ye

winged sun
#

and is it worth refreshing garrote during that situation?

royal lantern
#

you kinda did a fuckup there, but getting the mark running again has priority, cus the rupture after it will allready consume 1 stack

winged sun
#

or do u want as much cp as possible to finish off darkest night

gloomy heart
#

okay i know we spam 5-6 cp in raid when we dont have dn, is it the same in m+ on bosses

winged sun
#

ye but

#

can u refresh garrote during darkest night?

winged sun
#

or is it bad

royal lantern
winged sun
#

since its low cp

coral ibex
#

you should refresh rupture with your last mark, you shouldn’t be in DN without a rupture

winged sun
#

or do u want it as a 6 cp filler

gloomy heart
#

i mean you can

#

if u get 6 and can garrote for 7

#

win win

crimson zephyr
#

What's the C in CPM?

coral ibex
#

delaying DN is bad, refresh rupture sooner to avoid this failure state

winged sun
#

darkest night up and i can either envenom or crimson tempest in a big pull, do i envenom then crimson tempest?

coral ibex
spice spire
# spice spire Yep

Your first takes your ASP versus all Assassination rogues that have done GB and compares, the second is key specific

crimson zephyr
# spice spire Yep

yeah I mean that correlates with dmg but 1.3 overall dps in a timed key is just low in any case ^^

spice spire
crimson zephyr
#

ok thanks for the answers

winged sun
#

generally u can pool ur energy into darkest night to consume it asap for Hunt Them Down yea?

spice spire
winged sun
#

Quake !!

spice spire
#

Envenom

#

Get the mark on Ct

#

Anyway

winged sun
#

wtf is ct

#

ah

spice spire
#

Going to guess your meters had you at like 1.486M

spice spire
#

Because key logs show time total including downtime

winged sun
#

the plague auto atk dmg thing

spice spire
#

And you had about 86% uptime

winged sun
#

and what about Amplifying Poison

#

is that important to play around?

spice spire
#

No

#

Amp is just a passive

#

No thoughts needed

winged sun
#

ok lets say i have rly bad downtime no tea

#

is it better to envenom before the buff runs out or is it better to have 2 seperated envenoms? like lets say each envenom lasts 3 seconds and i have 10 seconds to use 2 envenoms

#

3 seconds, wait 1 second then envenom again?

spice spire
#

So when you say downtime

#

Do you mean you’re away from the boss and back in

#

Or just like

winged sun
#

energy

#

no energy

spice spire
#

You need to be hands off for a second

#

Okay

winged sun
#

no energy no tea

spice spire
#

Keep the buff going as long as possible

#

Then hands off for a bit, maintain your bleeds etc

winged sun
#

its rly important to have back to back buffs? than drop it and have it up for a full duration?

#

so its better to stay off the buff than seperate them both

spice spire
#

Really important is loaded

#

Really? No

winged sun
#

"is loaded" whats that

spice spire
#

Like

strange tundra
winged sun
spice spire
#

It’s a phrase that has a lot of meaning that it shouldn’t

strange tundra
#

Ty

spice spire
#

Is it important, kind of

#

Really important, nah

#

I also really think you’re overthinking a lot of this

winged sun
#

is it mainly because we want to buff envenom's dmg?

#

and not just auto attack poison procs

winged sun
spice spire
#

Yeah

winged sun
#

yea i see

strange tundra
#

Can u tldr this WA?

winged sun
#

and basically if i were to pool, i need to have envenom up for darkest night

spice spire
winged sun
#

its way better to have it on darkest night than not

spice spire
#

Way better again is a weird one

#

Because like

#

If you’re pooling on dn buff

slate crown
spice spire
#

Just send darkest night

spice spire
#

Because sending an envenom without mark feels like shit

#

And doesn’t fit the Econ of your whole rotstion

#

Can even lead to one less darkest night proc

#

Which is bad

winged sun
#

but it may make me not have energy for a 2nd envenom

slate crown
winged sun
#

is that fine

crimson zephyr
spice spire
#

It gives you energy as well

winged sun
#

ye

spice spire
#

The only time where this line matters zeross is like

#

First boss of mists for burn phase

winged sun
#

pooling is rly annoying with Sanguine Blades talent dead i hate this talent

strange tundra
spice spire
#

Then it’s fine with like min maxing your darkest nights

#

But that’s my dark feels craft side talking

winged sun
#

what are the minmaxes with darkest night anyway

#

to have envenom buff before it

#

thats it?

spice spire
#

Essentially yeah

slate crown
spice spire
#

Shiv up etc.

winged sun
#

yea i see

spice spire
#

But like

strange tundra
spice spire
#

Edge cases

winged sun
#

wait so shiv is important somewhat for darkest night

#

does the shiv'ed envenom effect spatter in aoe?

spice spire
#

Waiting an extra second to send your envenom because your kingsbane is about to tick 8s

#

No

#

I’m strictly speaking like st or prio situations

winged sun
#

i see Zerossthinking

#

yea

spice spire
#

And the thing above

winged sun
#

o btw if like

spice spire
#

Only matters for like boss fights

winged sun
#

the pull is big, 10+ mobs

#

its better to not shiv right?

#

for overall dps

#

or?

spice spire
#

Because losing a global in aoe way worse than like that boom

spice spire
winged sun
#

mainly i sometimes not shiv because the target just dies before my cd ends

spice spire
#

If you have a prio target you shiv always

winged sun
#

yea Zerossthinking

slate crown
#

Shiv only increases the damage taken by that singular mob, and Spatter does not gain damage from it being on the target, so yeah, it's just the loss of a global. If that loss of a global means more aoe damage than would be gained in ST on the target, sure

spice spire
#

If it’s just a bunch of goobers fuck it don’t shiv

slate crown
#

god damn goobers

spice spire
#

But there’s also supercharger implications as well

slate crown
#

hate goobers

strange tundra
#

I rerolled to enha anyway

spice spire
winged sun
#

ok i think im starting to completely understand the spec now

slate crown
winged sun
#

anything interesting with Doomblade btw?

spice spire
#

Only used to get sbs

slate crown
#

Love goobers, god damn so good

hollow river

dude its crazy that

#

we do more dps at 2-8 targets

#

than outlaw

midnight mist

without cds

winged sun
#

^ that

#

LOL

hollow river

Punch keyboard = top dps

outlaw gabagool spec

winged sun
#

yea everything is fully clear now

midnight mist
#

guys im seeing inside the matrice now

#

im fully activated

runic hinge
winged sun
#

oh 1 last thing is dropping rupture rly bad because of Corrupt the blood talent or is it just essentially because you lose the energy gained from rupture?

#

oh

matrices is a word

#

interesting

runic hinge
#

rupture gives energy ye and also does damage i mean mainting bleeds is core to the spec

midnight mist
#

rate christmas mog

#

im christmas person

winged sun
#

like corrupt the blood is something to be aware of?

spice spire
winged sun
#

but i guess not since dropping rupture and pressing envenom for darkest night is more important

spice spire
#

Exactly

winged sun
#

and there is no other situation where u would drop rupture anyway

spice spire
midnight mist

guys

winged sun

im so locked in rn

never felt more confident about a spec before

Just in time to go gambling in s2

mild jacinth
#

Hi when my original garotte and rupture runs out and i don't have vanish should i still try and spread rupture and garrot or is it better to just focus down the primary target and cleave with caustic splatter? in m+

#

and spend on envenom insteadf

spice spire
#

It’s not a linear answer

#

General line says yes

#

But there’s a ton of factors

#

If they’ll live 10s longer spreading is probably right

minor finch
#

How the hell you get this damn gems

#

I need fathom and only storm is up

spice spire
#

Keep running it eventually shows

minor finch
#

I have the storm one and that the only thing that appears

strange python
grim jay

A ton of factors

gloomy heart

wtb 11.1 ptr

spice spire
midnight mist
#

i think im confused about ttk

#

i feel like if i try to maintain both buff

#

i instantly have no energy

spice spire
#

Yeah

#

You’re not running dashing too yeah?

midnight mist
#

no not in m+

gloomy heart
#

Ppl run dashing?

spice spire
#

Yeah so ur constantly out of energy

spice spire
midnight mist
#

im doing this sometimes

#

in like dawn or smth

#

but ye idk

#

i dont get it i think

#

like just maintaining rupture and trying to have energy for kb or shiv

mild jacinth
midnight mist
#

i never have time to play around ttk and maintain the buff

coral ibex
#

you only maintain 2x during buffs bc you have the energy for it

#

without dashing you can’t really keep up 2x env outside buffs

midnight mist
#

i feel like im tracking it for nothing

#

cause i cant do shit about it anyway

coral ibex
#

yea welcome to the envenom weakaura debate circa 2 months ago lol

solar wyvern
#

Time to drop MA and play forced induction+ dashing !!

coral ibex
#

does it matter to track ttk?

low ruin
#

You are, you don't play around it the dps difference of playing around ttk and completely ignoring it is margin of error

coral ibex
#

probably not but some people like to track it

#

it mostly just gives you more ST dam in buffs

trim storm
#

is that normal that im out of energy in mythics ~10 after 50% boss hp is down ? like dps is not bad but its getting annoying

solar wyvern
#

Yes

#

!design

prisma monolithBOT
#

Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.

  • No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
  • 10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
  • You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target
midnight mist
#

rework assa so its gcd capped !

trim storm
#

so is it worth sometimes to not spamm all skills and auto attack sometimes if my trinkets and other cds are not up ?

solar wyvern

@low ruin ok

gloomy heart

need a !phyce command that says "this guy sucks"

solar wyvern
royal lantern
#

dont push missinformation

solar wyvern
#

Eh, its just exaggerated, FI and Dashing really do improve boss dps and energy in m+

#

I almost never run out when playing properly

rotund oak
#

dashing is like

#

whatever for m+

solar wyvern
#

In ST it matters

royal lantern
#

i can gurantee that forced induction has 0 effect on your energy

rotund oak
#

yup there it matters alot

solar wyvern
trim storm
#

thanks guys i thought im doing something wrong, but i was in hc raid last week and rogue made really high dps like 1.8m ( maybe cuz raid talent tree is way different, im not raiding much )

solar wyvern

Try it trust me, anytime I run the build I do about 100-150k more than MA subt
